I START A NEW JOB FEBRUARY 19!
I love every single person that I work with and all the experience I've had in this business over the past 4+ years but I'm not being used to my potential. My MBA is collecting dust in my head & I graduated less than 2 months ago. My mother was at a meeting when someone mentioned an opening for a Regulatory Compliance Agent. The regulatory side of oil & gas is not my favorite but I was looking for more money & more work so I emailed my resume to the company handling the hiring. She emailed back within 10 minutes about meeting for lunch the next day.
First thing she says is "I already filled the position you applied for but I have something else in mind for you." OOOOOOk. After telling me about the company and position for quite awhile, I finally asked what company it was; turns out it's a guy I did some projects for a couple years ago so I knew I would fit in well with them. About a week later (which unfortunately included the death of my beautiful great Aunt Viola) I sat down with my new boss to hear his offer. GOOD LORD ALMIGHTY; THAT is what an MBA should make!!
I told him I needed to give at least 2 weeks notice because of course I respect my current boss & that's the least I can do. But Monday the 18th is the day after my marathon & who knows if I'll be able to walk haha so we agreed on Tuesday the 19th!
I will mainly be helping the accountant but also taking over the production reporting and filing forms with the potential of growing into the office manager position very soon. I thank God for this amazing opportunity and feel SO blessed!
This past weekend, me, my mom, & my sister went to Austin to see the Lion King play. It was incredible! I love how the "animals" actually walk through the crowd to get onto the stage. We stayed at our favorite Holiday Inn on Town Lake and this was our beautiful view
We will be back here in less than 2 weeks for the marathon!! I can't believe it's so soon... & no, I haven't stopped eating
